Vindicated lyrics

Feb 4th 2012 9:24 pm

Wanting that one person, that, with time and moments and opportunities past, has finally left your grasp. And yet you still dream and long for them. Even though its now forbidden. And your there just waiting, waiting for the one moment where they slip, where the walls come down and you can bring them back to you forever.

The meaning of this song is about him wanting a girl that is engaged and he feels bad for having the feelings he does but he cant help it he has to have her... Second verse explains it all about the ring that is oversized shes overwhelmed that site of which has caught my eye... Meaning he knows its not what she wants.. The i am selfish i am wrong is him admitting its wrong to have those feelings.. Then when he said i am right... Means he knows she should be with him... Defense is paper thin one touch and ill be in to deep now to ever swim against the current so let me slip away means... Given any opportunity he's never be able to give up on the hope of having her love... So let him slip away... Basically saying bring it on biatch

This is the song that justifies that anything can happened in just one click of your finger... Wrapped with hopes on it.

Vindicated means to set free, to provide justification. Its talking about a guy who loves this girl. He feels justified to her presense of love, where he finds himself screwing things up with her. His interest of words is so bluntly spoken, that his hope is dangling for her to grab a hold of. The love he has for her is "like slow spinning redemption," showing him that he still has hope left to help redeem himself to get that second chance at love with her. He feels selfish for the things he has done and he is seeing in himself, the things she swore she saw. The unwanted things that he had that she didnt want. Believing that he will make this work the second time around. "cleaning up so well" following the positive things he has done to get to her. Expos, ms. Lee... I took so long but i did it... Yay!

Vindicated means justified. “vindicated” is about a guy who is at conflict with what is right, and a girl’s hope. “hope dangles on a string, like slow spinning redemption” means there is hope; a chance to redeem himself. “the shine of it has caught my eye;” the opportunity to redeem has caught his interest. “so mesmerizing, so hypnotizing, i am captivated;” he is drawn to hope. The chorus, “vindicated, i am selfish …you swore, you saw yourself” shows the conflict between what is right: vindicated, and feeding hope. “so clear…your ring” refers to what the girl saw in him, and circuitously implies the girl is married or engaged; creating juxtaposition, and transition. “cut to mirror your intention;” the ring reflects her intentions. “oversized and overwhelmed... Caught my eye;” the ring bothers him. “and rendered me, so isolated, so motivated” shows what the ring did to him. “defense is paper…the current;” he can turn back after getting so deep. “let me slip away” means let go of me; don’t hope. The song ends with “slight hope…like slow spinning redemption. ” this line brings the song full circle, and creates irony: she still has hope. Expos, yay lee!!!

This song is about how a boy hoping for someting good to come along. He's regretful of screwing things up with this gril he's in love with and sees that he had a chance but didn't take it and should have at least tried. He thinks of himself as sick and being wrong and right at the same time. Being wrong about the gril not liking him but right about taking a chance. He's trying to clean up for her but live his life because if he does he can get another chance and still be able to live his life. He's seeing the things that hte girl saw and didn't want to be bothered with a changing. He motivates himself to being with her. Then he kisses her and he doesn't want the momenet to ever end and finally he takes his second chance and gets with her. Yet his hope tangles on astring he plans to make it work. Meaning his hope is thin but the little bit of hope he wanted is still there even though it took so long it was worth it. -cris10-
